Does anyone know how to, or where I can find some kind of instructional about how to make a (possibly latex) prop specimen for a photoshoot I have in mind for my photographer friend (kind of a voodoo/circus sidewhow/oddities theme).
I've been looking for two days, but I can't find anything.

I am needing to find a piece of art for my properties design that I am taking to competition in February. I am looking for a picture that preferably has a person in it with some different objects in it, or decorations that feel like they belong to the person in the picture. If one is not available with a person in it then I would like a room with objects and decorations that truly look like they are in their proper place. Thanks.

This theory says that the first people in India were the Dravidians (South Indians). These people were said to have been pushed downward by invaders from other lands, who later became the North Indians.

Take each and every moment as it comes!!!

Sounds absolutely pathetic... but some of the best advice is given out in a cartoon - SouthPark-'Goths'!!! - Hear me out, before you stick me in the 'fruitcake' catergory!!!

A common theme in the show is that of a moral or message being told towards the end. I this episode a character called 'Butters', who has just been dumped by his girlfriend, delivers the moral, thus:

Asked if he wanted to join a group of Goth kids (to mope, and write poems about how BAD life is!), he replies,
"Yeah... I'm sad! But at the same time I'm really happy that something can make me feel that sad... it's like... it makes me feel alive, y'know? It makes me feel human."
"The only way I could feel this sad now, is if I felt somethin' really good before, so I have to take the bad with the good. So I guess what I'm feelin' is, like a beautiful sadness... I guess that sounds stupid..."

I know there's one in Paris and New York, but I don't know where the third one is.

****
I want to dance on a pole
I want to entertain the folks
I want to be admired for me
…not just a sexy thing

I want to sing in a cage
I want to wear a feather boa
I want to be home before her
…not just a play thing

I want to be understood
I want to show my undies, just a little
I want to get a ride to the store
…keep your hands to yourself

First 2 are by Neil Strauss, final one by Richard La Ruina. I'm only going to buy one...'The Game' was recommended to me by a friend, but 'The Rules of the Game' seems to be the same thing without the storyline. Anyway; which one is best? Thanks.

*****
I hear the spirits calling
Words from a language unwritten
I sit in a chair and wait…
I have waited a long time
The spirits will not shut up
They keep rambling on
…duty, honor, country
How can I get around it?
How can I get over it?

*****
I am a hard working cat
I get up and I go, and that’s that
I don’t take ciggy breaks no more
…work work work

I have a ham sammy for lunch
And some chips for to munch
But I won’t get a bunch of crumbs
…on the work stuff

I can go get supplies, and the mail
I can type with both paws
For my tea break, I like sardines
…then right back to work

It starts with one flower that grows to a person, than people, who start a war and end up destroying everything. The poem ends where it starts off, with one flower again.

yes there are many good things we have done, but it seems that the bad things are only getting worse.
Peace, love, Unity, & Respect are great virtues, but they seem to be fading.
War, Hate, Alienation, & Terror seems to be on the up rise.

for me it seems that humanity will infact end with a "bang" & not a "whimper" as some people like to believe.

Awake...Not Alert...


Chairs to vacuum
Carpets to dust
Banks to rob...
Uh. No...
Piggy banks to rob.

Dog to kill
Fleas to walk
Dishes to break...
Uh. Yes...
Dishes to break.

Hair to floss
Teeth to spray
Schedule to meet...

Coffe pot is empty
Got to make another
Drink, lay in bed
Relax from a 30 minute day.

I caught my husband cheating on me and we're now separated. He hasn't decided if he wants a divorce yet. I'm trying to be scripturally correct. The Bible says that its the HUSBAND that gives the wife a certificate of divorce. Is what he's done/doing equal to a certificate of divorce?
